SUMMARY:Justin Chart
DESCRIPTION:Universal Music Group artist Justin Chart is a visionary alto saxophonist and a prominent figure in the modern West Coast jazz scene. Jazz Europe rates Justin Chart as one of the top ten modern day hard bop saxophone players in the world. Known in jazz circles as “The Blizzard” for his explosive playing and intricate compositional changes\, Chart is a trailblazer who is one of the modern masters of Hard-Bop jazz. His unique style is characterized by a seductive yet familiar vibe\, offering a harmonic edge that remains deeply rooted in the jazz lineage while standing out as distinctly modern in color. \nJustin Chart has graced the following renowned clubs\, iconic stages\, and Festivals: Lugano Jazz Festival–Switzerland\, Sildajazz–Norway\, Kammgarn International Jazz Festival—Germany\, Varna Jazz Days Festival—Bulgaria\, Ribe Jazz Festival—Denmark\, Lahden Jazztori in Lahti–Finland\, Jazz in Marciac—France\, La Villette Jazz Festival in Paris–France\, Torino Jazz Festival–Italy\, Venezia Jazz Festival–Italy\, Meer Jazz Festival in Haarlemmermeer–Netherlands. \nChart’s technique is nothing short of profound\, often relying completely on spontaneous improvisation to create entire sets of music that feel as structured as carefully notated compositions. He is a master of “elegant and enticing extemporization\,” frequently recording his albums in a single take to capture the raw\, unbridled energy of the moment. Whether he is coaxing pure beauty out of his alto or letting loose fiery phrases of Be-Bop\, his commanding presence and musical ingenuity have earned him critical acclaim and a reputation as a superlative world class artist. \nHis technique is characterized by a “staggering” level of skill and an “architectural” approach to improvisation. Chart doesn’t just play over a melody; he intuitively writes new melodies and rhythm changes on the spot. This profound technical ability allows him to lead his ensembles through complex\, high-energy sessions that feel both dangerous and exhilarating\, cementing his status as a master improvisational architect. \nJustin Chart is a unique artist who maintains a deep respect for jazz tradition while constantly looking toward the future. His music is steeped in the lessons of the past\, yet his harmonic choices and modern colorations define him as a contemporary crusader. Renown by many jazz writers and legendary artists —emphasizing a style that is infectious\, devoid of pretentiousness\, and filled with the brilliance of pure invention. \nJustin Chart’s musical career spans over four decades\, with performances throughout the world. He has amassed nearly 100\,000 followers on Instagram and over 12 MILLION views on YouTube. His new album The Nightside is available from Universal Music Group on all major streaming platforms.
